Description: # Azure-Kinect-Python
        
        Python 3 bindings for the Azure Kinect SDK
        
        ## Changelog
        
        - v1.1.0: Updated supported SDK and firmware versions to latest
        - v1.0.0: Initial release
        
        ## Setup
        
        ### Install the right Kinect SDK, Kinect Body Tracking SDK, and device firmware versions
        
        Please uninstall all unrelated SDK versions if you are having issues. The supported versions are:
        
        * [Sensor SDK v1.4.1](https://github.com/microsoft/Azure-Kinect-Sensor-SDK/blob/develop/docs/usage.md#installation)
        * [Body tracking SDK v1.0.1](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/azure/kinect-dk/body-sdk-download)
        * Device firmware version must be at least 1.6.110079014 or higher.
        
        Add the following to your system PATH:
        
        * `C:\Program Files\Azure Kinect SDK v1.4.1\sdk\windows-desktop\amd64\release\bin`
        * `C:\Program Files\Azure Kinect Body Tracking SDK\sdk\windows-desktop\amd64\release\bin`
        * `C:\Program Files\Azure Kinect Body Tracking SDK\tools`
        
        (Or relevant paths for your platform containing the the `k4a(.so|.dll)` and `k4abt(.so|.dll)` dynamic libraries)
        
        ## Feature support
        
        Currently only body tracking is wrapped, but adding further wrappings should be easy and PRs would be appreciated!
        
        ## Examples
        
        There is a very simple example you can run via:
        
        ```sh
        py -3 example/simple_sample.py
        ```
        
        ## Demos
        
        We are using it to develop an Azure Kinect plugin for [Blender](https://blender.org), which you can see a very early demo of here:
        
        [![Azure Kinect for Blender](https://img.youtube.com/vi/jFVq6SdOdHw/0.jpg)](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFVq6SdOdHw)
        
        The plugin is available for early access and will be open-sourced soon, please email stephen@hexops.com to gain early access.
        
        ## Troubleshooting
        
        ### Do NOT use Python from the Windows Store
        
        If you get the error:
        
        ```
        [2021-01-18 14:05:28.307] [error] [t=6336] [K4ABT] D:\a\1\s\src\TrackerHost\TrackerHost.cpp (157): Create(). Find onnxruntime.dll at C:\Program Files\Azure Kinect Body Tracking SDK\tools\onnxruntime.dll but it doesn't load correctly!
        ```
        
        It is because the Windows Store installs Python to a restricted user directory which cannot access external DLLs.
